Failure of TurboTax to detect previous tax returns

I just installed TurboTax and began my return.  Unlike previous versions, this one fails to detect previous TurboTax returns on the same computer.  This annoying outcome prevents comparison with previous year's responses.  Is there a "fix" for this problem?
